please add the following domain(s) to the wgCopyUploadsDomains whitelist: ftp://sitelftp.unine.ch/
That "domain" includes a protocol. FTP isn't supported. http://sitelftp.unine.ch/ gives a 403

Does this mean that I will have to transfer the files (images) in to a http server in order to be able to use the GWToolset?

It's just not allowing access via HTTP. Chances are this can be fixed by updating the IIS config

If yes, than it is easier for me to upload the files in to a http server already white listed (wikimedia.ch), instead of asking the university administration in charge of the servers to make the necessary changes. By the way, the technical side is not my strongest side, so the less tech solution would be easier for me.
(In reply to Rromir from comment #4) > If yes, than it is > easier for me to upload the files in to a http server already white listed > (wikimedia.ch) Yes, I would say to do this. There are a relatively small number of files there (~50) and so these could be copied to another site (e.g. wikimedia.ch) without too great a hassle.
CC-ing Emmanuel Engelhart of Wikimedia CH who might be able to help with the copying part.
@Rromir please ask the Unine IT department if the data available in FTP are also available via HTTP. If not try to get it. Moving dozen of GB of data from one server to another won't make your life easier.
As best I can tell there is only about 800 MB worth of data, unless I'm looking in the wrong place...
For the tlong term strategy, more than 120 000 pictures, we will need to let the pictures at the unine, I asked to activate http
I did upload some files on the wikimedia server (http://lan.wikimedia.ch/campestre/) and tried to batch upload them on the Beta Cluster. Apart from minor coding things, which I am figuring out how to correct, the process worked ok. I will do more tests before i finally start the proper upload. Having the files at UNINE server (available via HTPP) will certainly make things easier.
Closed as RESO WONTFIX per previous comments, as we don't provide FTP support currently. Please reopen this bug if/when: - they have setup a HTTP server to provide access to the same folders than FTP; - you are willing we work with the FTP ans so have opened another bug to request whether a FTP -> HTTP proxy, whether a FTP direct upload support.
